Description:
This very large, statement ring weighs 21.3 grams and is crafted in 14k yellow gold. The mounting features a unique, textured nugget-style design surrounding a large, trillion-cut stone with a deep maroon/red hue. While we are not professional gemologists and the stone has not been tested, the color and cut are consistent with several potential stones, including:
-
Garnet: A common choice for deep red/maroon jewelry, often featuring a similar brilliance.
-
Synthetic Corundum (Ruby): Frequently used in large, high-carat jewelry to achieve a rich, consistent red color.
-
Tourmaline: Some varieties of tourmaline occur in deep red or maroon shades.
-
Spinel: A gemstone known for its deep red color, which can sometimes be mistaken for ruby or garnet.
Please note that the stone's exact identity is unknown. Bidders should use their own judgment based on the provided photos. The ring is a size 10 and is stamped "14K" on the interior.
